Dragon Age 2 Demo Unlocks Weapon For Full Game

Yesterday word leaked that Dragon Age II would be receiving a pre-launch demo. Today EA confirmed the news and provided details on its content.

The demo begins with the full game's prologue. You'll choose from three different character classes and learn how to use your class' abilities while finding out more about your character, Hawke. You'll then travel to the town of Kirkwall and meet Isabella, a smuggler and potential romantic interest.

Completing the demo will unlock Hayder's Razor in the full game of Dragon Age 2. Hayder's Razor is a dwarven blade that gives bonuses to your health, mana, and combat abilities. You'll need an EA account and Internet connection to unlock the weapon. Also, you won't be able to get it after May 31st.

The demo will be publicly released on February 22nd on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360. That's actually a day earlier than the leak had suggested.
